Product Description
Gabion box/mattress is made of hexagonal double twist wire mesh type 60 × 80mm/ 80 × 100mm.
In order to reinforce the structure. All mesh panel deges are selvedge with a wire having a thicker diameter than the mesh wire. The gabions is divided into cells by diaphragms at 1 meters.
Rock filled gabion at the project site to form flexible, permeablem monolithic structures to control and guide water and flood and project bridge, bank, seaside area and coil, etc

Gabion assembly
The folded units shall be taken out from the bundle and placed on a hard flat surface. Gabion shall be opened, unfolded and pressed out to their original shape. Front, back and end panel shall be lifted to a vertical position to form an open box shape. All edges of the diaphragms and end panels shall be tied by lacing wire.
The ends of lacing wires shall be anchored by 3 tight turns around the selvedge wires.
Application
PVC coated gabion box is filled with rock at the project site to form flexiable, permeable, monolithic structure to be used in civil engineering, road building, military application etc.
Typical uses including:
Rock walls
Retaining walls
Revetments
Weirs
Military use
River works
Coastal defence systems
Soil conservation
Decorative
How long does gabion box life?
The gabion mesh is available with different coatings. The coating selection is made depending upon the environmental conditions. For example, a dry wall situation is likely to require only galvanized.
whereas a maritime environment or a longer design life would use a PVC coated galvanized. It is recommended that any structure in permanent contact with water (through immersion, proximity or spray) use PVC coated gabions.PVC coating can achieve 70 years when not exposed to severe environment.
Gabion Box have the following positive advantages:
1, Cost effective & environmentally friendly alternative to concrete system.
2, The Gabion structure blends easily and harmoniously with natural surroundings.
3, Simple & speedy installation, using natural or quarried stones obtained locally.
4, Ability to deform without cracking allowing the structure to withstand any unpredictable movement.
5, Higher resistance to natural forces due to better tensile strength.
6, Permeable: A Gabion structure allows water to pass through, water pressure cannot build up behind it and the structure is continuously.
7, Easy to transport: It can be folded together for transport and further installation.
8, Majority of manpower need not to be skilled & speed at which the work is carried out is unparalleled in civil engineering, besides making it cost effective.
9, Easy of repair to any damaged cages, with minimal expense.
10, Applications are as Channels, Rock fall, Roadside and Culverts protection and many more purposes.
